fenbendazole and Weight Gain

fenbendazole has been researched along with Weight Gain in 17 studies

Fenbendazole: Antinematodal benzimidazole used in veterinary medicine.
fenbendazole : A member of the class of benzimidazoles that is 1H-benzimidazole which is substituted at positons 2 and 5 by (methoxycarbonyl)amino and phenylsulfanediyl groups, respectively. A broad-spectrum anthelmintic, it is used, particularly in veterinary medicine, for the treatment of nematodal infections.

Weight Gain: Increase in BODY WEIGHT over existing weight.
